Long-term benefits of exclusive human milk diet in small for gestational age neonates: a systematic review of the literature
AbstractEvidence about feeding practices ’ consequences in small for gestational age newborns is not well established because they are less likely to initiate and continue breastfeeding than other newborns. Our aim was to study current knowledge about the benefits of exclusive human milk diet after 2 years of age in small for gestational age newborns. A systematic review of the literature was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline criteria. Pubmed and Scopus were searched for studies published from databases inception until June 2, 2023. Included artic...

Modification of Experimental Model of Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) in Rat Pups by Single Exposure to Hypothermia and Hypoxia and Impact of Mother's Milk on Incidence of Disease
CONCLUSIONS The modified experimental NEC model based on formula feeding and single exposure to hypothermia and hypoxia was assessed statistically and histologically. In this model, mother's milk had a protective effect against necrotizing enterocolitis.PMID:38678319 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.943443 (Source: Medical Science Monitor)

Molecular diagnosis for camel raw milk microbiota
The objective of this study was to ascertain the existence of microorganisms in unprocessed raw camel milk by employing a molecular-based technique in combination with a histological examination of bacteria. The identification of microbial species was achieved by employing PCR amplification and sequencing of 16s rRNA gene fragments. Various micorganisms found includes the probiotic Lactobacillus species, Staphylococcus succinic, Macrococcus casealyticus, Bacillus cohnii, and Salinicoccus kunmingensis. To prevent microbial contamination in raw milk, it is necessary to adequately heat or pasteurise the milk and to wash and s...

A pump-free paper/PDMS hybrid microfluidic chip for bacteria enrichment and fast detection
Talanta. 2024 Apr 26;275:126155. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126155. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDeveloping portable and sensitive biosensors for bacteria detection is highly demanded due to their association with environmental and food safety. Paper-based microfluidic chip is the suitable candidate for constructing pump-free biosensor since paper is hydrophilic, low-cost and easy to use. However, the contradiction between sensitivity and small sample volume seriously affects the application of paper-based chip for bacteria detection. Here, a new microfluidic biosensor, combining large PDMS reservoir for sample storage, ...

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 2033: Generation of Eroded Nanoplastics from Domestic Wastes and Their Impact on Macrophage Cell Viability and Gene Expression
This study reports an innovative approach for producing nanoplastics (NP) from various types of domestic waste plastics without the use of chemicals. The plastic materials used included water bottles, styrofoam plates, milk bottles, centrifuge tubes, to-go food boxes, and plastic bags, comprising polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), polypropylene (PP), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and Poly (Ethylene-co-Methacrylic Acid) (PEMA). The chemical composition of these plastics was confirmed using Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, and they were found to have irregular shapes. The resulting NP particles ranged from 5...

Study protocol to assess aflatoxin M1 health risks versus benefits of dairy consumption in Ethiopian children: an epidemiological trial and risk-benefit analysis
Introduction In Sidama, Ethiopia, animal-source foods can be difficult to access. Milk has important nutrients for child growth, but carries the risk of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) contamination. AFM1 is a metabolite of the mycotoxin aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in dairy feed; cows secrete AFM1 in milk when their feed contains AFB1 produced by Aspergillus fungi in maize, nuts and oilseeds. It is unknown whether AFM1 compromises child growth and health. Methods and analysis This protocol paper describes our study in Sidama to determine the impact of milk consumption and AFM1 on child growth in the first 18 months of life. We will collect b...
